Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections are a leading cause of death in patients suffering from respiratory diseases. The multidrug-resistant nature of Pseudomonas is potentiated by a process known as quorum sensing. The aim of this study was to reveal new inhibitors of a well-validated but quite unexplored target, enoyl-ACP reductase, which contributes acyl chain lengths of N-acyl homoserine lactones that...
Bacterial virulence is controlled by a cascade of genes influenced by quorum sensing alias bacterial signalling.The present study was intended to develop an effective module that could constrain bacterial communication without harming the host. Quorum quenching ability of Tribulus terrestris was screened upon chromogenic reporter strains such as Chromobacterium violaceum, Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa...
The capacity of two homoserine lactones to stimulate the marine bacteria Pseudoalteromonas ulvae (TC14 strain) for its capacity to form a biofilm when exposed to a potent antibiofilm compound AS162 is reported. Effective concentrations (EC50) of AS162 at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h were, respectively, of 4.3, 4.4, and 6.0 µM. When tested in combination with HSLs, results showed that quorum-sensing signal...
